hi, I have recently stopped taking BCP and am having some problems...sex has become painfull (in my lower stomach)(sorry too much info)...I have never had this before and was wondering if anyone knew if this could be related to stopping the pill and if it is how long it will last??

How many days into your cycle are you?? Sometimes depending on where you are in your cycle the position of your Cervix can cause pain durning sex. How long has this been occuring?? Is there any spotting afterwards??

Have you had a pap test lately. I have the same type feeling right now and have to go in to have a test done to see if I have an infection in the tissue of the cervix (sorry TMI). I suggest that you have one done if you haven't recently. Otherwise, could it be a lubrication problem? Or it could be that your DH is actually hitting your cervix and causing the pain.

Hope this gives you a little info and I hope you get your answers.

Good Luck!

Hi Jesse -

I'm not sure why that happens, but I think I've had the same thing. At risk of sounding to graphic, it kinda feels (for me) that there isn't as much room in there. I have to tell my DH to take it easy. But it only happens certain times of month. Once I get my cycle figured out, I may be able to pinpoint why this happens. Is this the same feeling you get?

Hi there,

I get the same thing sometimes, my Dr. said it is nothing worth probling into if it is just onc ein a while because it is probably just DH! I did have a pap, to make sure things were okay. I would rec. doing that then seeing if this pain persists or has a pattern. Mine usually happens once a month or so, I figure it is my cervix placement. Good luck.
